Student Reflections on the SERP program:

鈥淭he program gave me a foundation on which I can now build by carrying out my concentrated research. With the plethora of new information, work, and tests, also came the formation of study groups to make it through, and consequently, new bonds and lifelong friendships were formed.鈥�- J. Richardson (pre-vet student).

鈥淭his program taught me that even with all the resources in the world at your disposal, success starts within you.鈥�- E. Webber (pre-vet student).

鈥淚 learned to reach out to my professors and classmates and speak up when I did not understand something. I learned that my vet school family is going to play a major role in getting through the veterinary curriculum. This program is different because I got first-hand experience in just how much of a family the vet school community is.鈥� 鈥� K. Nel (pre-vet student).

鈥淚 liked that I was able to refresh my knowledge on the topics that will be covered in my first semester at TUCVM. It was helpful to see how much knowledge I retained and distinguish which classes I had more difficulty learning than others. I furthermore appreciated the opportunity to meet my future professors and some of the upperclassmen.鈥�- J. Smith (Class of 2026).

鈥淚 enjoyed how nice and informative the (TUCVM) staff were and how the SERP program gave a glimpse as to how vet school will be.鈥� N. Reeves (Class of 2026).
